Police using AI tech in trial program

Fenton (Michigan) police have launched a trial program using AI-powered video surveillance from Eagle Eye Networks to enhance crime prevention. 

Imagine calling 911 and the police can watch a live feed video of your location.

This is the goal of the Eagle Eye 911 Camera Sharing program created by Eagle Eye Networks. With this artificial intelligence-powered video surveillance, 911 dispatchers can gain live access to security footage during emergencies.

Fenton Police Chief Jeff Cross said they learned about this technology at a meeting in Livingston County and are currently using loaner cameras from the company for a 60-day trial program. The trial period started in January and ends the beginning of March.

“It’s advanced technology. It would be beneficial to have something like that here in the city. It gives us eyes in the sky 24/7,” he said. “We could watch it anytime we wanted. We could go back to watch the video if there is a crime.”
